Guild Wars 2

I am doing it in divisions where you can’t lose tiers xD

This achievement is such a massive issue imo. There are alot of players, including me that for the majority of their games soloq’d into a high division (or legendary like me) on 1 single profession.

All of sudden, if you want that shiny pvp backpiece you’re forced to play 2 other classes to finish the achievement. The issue isn’t particularly the learning part of the classes, the issue is that, for me as example, i have to suddenly play 2 new classes that i’ve had limited playtime with or never played at all, at Legendary division. This means i have to play against other legendary players on a profession that I essentially suck at. Which can cost games.

Include the atrocious queue times and i’m probably gonna be spending a week before i have 5 wins on the 2 different professions.

I think this is incredibly bad design and a massive oversight.

And now we know another reasons why people with high division such as legendary queue up with ambers.

or you could play 5-10 rounds on unranked for a night and learn the class so that when you start playing it in ranked its not an instant disaster?

yeah , games are lost on this behalf, i feel sory for my teammates also when i need to log on a charecter with not much experience

Its a misconception to think that you can “learn a class within a night of playing”.

I’ve spent almost 1000 games and 250 hours on my druid, and there are still things that i could learn or practise just by looking at how ROM plays when he streams. And its against these types of players that I have to play against when you’re in Legendary Division.

They could very easily fix or change this achievement by adding a 10 wins and a respective 15 or even 20 win achievement on the same class. So you could pick, get 5 wins on 3 different professions, or choose to win 15 or 20 times on 1 profession.

Those are my thoughts on the matter atleast.

This achievement is a high support of frustration for me.

Every time I get to high Ruby, I get matched with low diamond teammates who are grinding out achievements on classes that they are bad at (because they can’t lose pips). This means I have to either carry my higher ranked teammates against higher ranked opponents, or I lose.

I’m stuck in 50% hell.

MMR needs to be turned off while Divisions are a thing. I’m either better than ruby in which casevU shoud get a chance to advance, or I’m not and I shouldn’t.

You ideally should have gone for the achievement long before you hit Legendary…

Put it off until next season, and do it when you’re starting out in Amber or Emerald. The lengthiest achievements to get, the Participator and League Threshold ones, continue to update even if your overall meta is stalled, so you’ve still been progressing those even while stuck with one class. It just means the relatively easy things, the rank points/ranked wins per day/top stats/etc. will get backlogged, but if you got to Legendary you won’t have a problem getting those next season.

They could just make it to be in unranked matches . In that way we learn more clases, get better understanding of classes and there counters and will be better players, without destroying the game for teammates that need there pips to advance and are good players when they have propper teammates playing.

Ahahahaha, buhahahaha
You could actually learn it in unranked matches, and come back to ranked and play like everyone else, not exploit druid, mesmer and ele! I hope they nerf those to!

You’re telling me that you’re so good at one class that you’re in legendary, but not even adequate enough on other classes that it’d take weeks for you to win 5 times on them? Are you serious? Absolutely none of my friends or queue-mates only play one class. Some only play 2 or 3 well enough to make do, but that’s what bunkery builds are for. If you really only want to play one class, then tough kitten. You’re going to be unable to progress through some achievements. Not even sorry about it.

I can sympathise with your problem. Managed to get to legendary and I’m not even going to try to play tempest/dragonhunter at that level, I’m simply not good enough. I don’t really care about advancing into a higher prestige of legendary so I’m just biting the bullet and playing unranked to learn those classes, then just grinding all the wins next season in amber/emerald.

If you really need to get the achievements now, maybe try Stronghold (if you can do that in ranked??). Imo less player skill needed, you could just run supply/pve.

Why aren’t people doing this while they were in the lower divisions where you cant lose tiers? Boggles the mind.

I did mine while in Emerald.

I am not that good to have this problem but sympathize. I don’t think some people realize how high of a skill ceiling there is, you cannot learn a class in 10 games and play at that level. Even the pros can only play 2-3 classes at a high level and even then, are usually only actually comfortable competing with 1 or 2. Most normal people can only play one class (obviously IF that) at that level.

IDK if i’m missing something, but you have to repeat this same achievement 4 times, not just once.

Ascension part 1 is 2 different professions, and Ascension part 2 through 4 are all 5 wins on 3 different professions.

You have no idea how frustrating it is to play a game with a class you’re not familiar with in a high tier enviroment.

Play the different classes earlier on and the lovely 50/50 win/loss match making algorithm should eventually let you get your 5 wins. If you do this at the start of a tier in the lower divisions you will not lose any pips/tiers.

Each season your division will get reset so do them at the start of next season.

I want to know why people are complaining about those achievments. There is no reason to rush them. Most average pvp people will take 3-4 seasons to complete the backpack. So just wait till new season and do those achievs in amber-sapphire. There problem solved

Yes you can’t start the year of ascension part 3 one until you reach Ruby where you do lose tiers and I guess the part 4 one has to be done when you are legendary, or wait for next season.

Is there any way to get this without being a multiclass player???
I just lost 19 pips beacuse I tried to get it… (I used to be legendary x2)
This is so dumb im ruining my teammates games and mine are boring too….

Why didnt you finish legendary x3 before doing this? Why dont you wait for next season to do it?

You do realize this is for the new Legendary back piece? You know how much gold other Legendary’s go for? You know how much work it takes to the 3 new Legendary’s.

It should take a player with Legendary skills to get this. You have the Legendary badge. Did you farm SH to Legendary?

I had this issue too. Made it to legendary feeling like I was carrying teams on rev. Then realized I needed achieve and couldn’t play anything at that skill level.

Luckily dragon hunter has a really straight forward play style, and I was able to learn it relatively quickly, though it’s not quite as optimal. This achieve should be changed imo.

mysterion.1276:

If i dont get the achievment i can’t progress daily achievment.

You can. The next tier of Daily Participator unlocks when you finish the previous tier, even if you haven’t yet reached that overall tier. It works the same as the Mystic Essence Collector and Wings of Glory achievements in that respect. There’s plenty of people out there who have the Vial of Salt already, even though it’s impossible for anyone to have completed the third set of achievements yet.

You won’t be able to progress things like Rank Earner and Conqueror and Top Stats and the like, but those won’t be time-gated once you are able to progress them, so you should be able to power through them quickly enough.

So “the pros” use 1 class at legendary, and they are using mesmer, ele and druid I guess, ‘cause they are pros..!? Or even better: pre-made! Ahahahhaha, don’t feel sorry, I’m at ruby with 24 pips, and year of ascension part 3, so Kitten u all!
I truly hope that u can’t progress daily achievement without completion each part, legendary ppl and even some diamond pre-made them self up there, laugh at us, I want to laugh to!
And go back to 0 pip were everyone deserve it, I had 21 pips, back to 3, had 16 back to 3, this is life, druid, mesmer and ele over powered, u all know it, abuse it, then cry at legendary that u loose pips with other classes, buhahahahahaha! It just says that your place is not at legendary! You abuse pre-made, TS, and other stuff
I wonder who will get it first; the legendary backpack, ppl with no achievement but legendary, or ruby ppl with all achievement (at season 2)..?! Buhahahahaha, the race is on!
Learn those classes in unranked, think you legendary champion crying babyes! You don’t even know what the opponent is capable of if you don’t know the other classes, and you are at legendary, wtf?! Serious, how the f you ended up there? How? Oh, above, you know the tricks, exploits! Grat! And to all of you, you all know that you have to win at part 3 year of ascension 7 times with each profession?! At part 4 it would be 10 or even more, ahahahaha, buhahahahahaha! Now go be a real Legendary!

Very simple fix: When you’re about to win a game log onto another class.

You’re welcome.

You’re legendary but you can’t play more than 1 or 2 classes decently ? Sounds fishy to me…

People should be able to play multiple classes but then again people should do a lot of things. Like stop complaining on forums about things they dislike – especially when they don’t put any effort into trying to work around it.

Yet they won’t, and hitting legend isn’t exactly difficult so let them have their work-around. As a side note I hit legend with one class – the only reason I played games on Ranger/Revenant was to take a break from Thief and get the achievement. People who don’t can do what I said above. Just hope you have fast load times.

Took me 13 matches to win 5 with a third class (Necro) for the second phase of the PvP track for the legendary backpiece. I guess could went worse, but still my thoughs on those loses were “I have no clue about what I’m doing and I’m severely handicaping my team”.

Clearly is a bad design of achievement and is largely afecting the quality of the gameplay, specially in ruby and diamond divisions (i did it in ruby, just at the beguining to prevent hurting my earnings). Also the notion of having to play multiple classes to being good is wrong: you must KNOWN how the classes work (to be able to fight them), but nothing must force you to play the current cancer meta.

You misunderstood the problem propably,
Its not like its possible to learn a class in 1 day
with high legendary mmr you fight against players that play their classes since years.
Thats why players which can’t multiclassing are screwed.

I yesterday played a profession, that i haven’t played in two months. Result: 7 wins in row. (I admit the team was very good, but it wasn’t a carry, i won many duels and team fights). So it isn’t that hard Then again, i beta tested almost all professions, and have about 6000 hour active time in the game.

Then again, i know many people who only ever play the same class (see this mostly with warrior, ranger and thief imo). It’s their right to love that the most, and don’t wanna invest time into researching another profession they probably won’t like.

HOW???? srsly…. Play ele or engi or druid ?!?!?! srsly u can get decent with those Facy broken meta specs after playing 10unranked games or 20mins 1v1ing your friends….

srsly if you can’t pull this off you don’t deserve your full farmed legend division.
